Keep Sensor Alert Details on the Asana Task
Put the latest sensor alert beside the task where your team is already coordinating.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create task comment
Adds a new text comment (story) to an existing asana task, appearing in its activity feed.
Why this helps
Alert details can get separated from the task that tracks the response, leaving teammates to reconstruct what happened.
- Keep alert information with the related task
- Give teammates a shared activity trail
- Avoid manually copying alert details
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bolt IoT and Asana once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want, in a channel or under Automations, New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, describe how to identify the relevant Asana task and what alert details Notis should add as a comment.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real alert and a task you can identify reliably.
Questions about this workflow
What if the relevant task cannot be identified?
Provide a stable way to identify it in the webhook or prompt. If Notis cannot resolve the task, the comment cannot be safely attached.
Will the alert appear as a task comment?
Yes. This workflow uses Asana's create task comment action to add the supplied alert context to an existing task.
